Ski route

In addition to being unprepared, ski routes generally follow a challenging course, often with sheets of ice, rocks, bushes, snowdrifts or other obstacles, and they are often steep.

[1] In Poland, it is customary to mark the ski route with three horizontal stripes on trees, walls, rocks, and signposts (set up in open areas).

The two outer stripes are orange, while the middle one is filled with black, red, green or blue paint.

The colour of the route is related to its skiing difficulty, unlike the markings of hiking trails.

Factors such as the terrain, forest cover, buildings and other objects located in the immediate vicinity are also important.
